My gift to you

My gift to you

The hardest thing I did was live
Thinking I had nothing to give
I couldn't take anymore; I wanted to die
So suicide I gave a try

I swallowed some pills and slit my wrists;
Laid down for what seemed like a bit

When I woke...

silent gifts

I saw you sitting alone on your porch as I drove past your house
You looked peaceful and content on that beautiful day
I didn't to talk to you
Instead I gave you a gift you will never know about
By not disturbing you, I gave you peace and quiet...
